Consumerism to Minimalism V L Thompson

Excessive consumerism has devastating effects on the environment, causes individual servitude to personal debt, forces the individual to work themselves to utter exhaustion, and depletes the mental and physical health of a nation's people. How did this obsession with shopping start? Why do we do it? Is there a way to change/stop the astronomical problems we, ourselves, have created and continue to perpetrate?All of these questions, and more, will be answered in "Consumerism to Minimalism." Changing habits and thought processes, while working towards a more minimalist and meaningful lifestyle, is our best chance at healing the environment, getting out of debt, working less and enjoying life more, and regaining our mental and physical health. The rewards of challenging yourself will be astounding.
